Baltimore’s DEI Boondoggle: $2.7 Million for Ideology While the City Burns
The proposed FY2026 budget for Baltimore allocates $2.7 million to identity-based offices amidst an $85 million deficit, raising concerns about prioritizing Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) over essential services. Critics argue this bureaucratic focus neglects pressing issues like public safety and infrastructure, ultimately failing marginalized groups who need real support.
